So, on through the years to follow,
The times we are yet to see,
On through the golden future,
And the wondrous days to be,
May there ever remain beside us,
As a shield from peril to hide us,
As a star to the truth to guide us,
St. Mary's, our love for thee.

When afar in the golden future
In the days we have longed to see
When out in the world we have wandered
To work, and to strive, and to be,
May the lives that we live be a token
Of a loyal faith yet unbroken
Of the tender love that's unspoken,
St. Mary's, we bear to thee.

May the deeds that we do proclaim us

Thy daughters in truth to be.

May we follow thy precepts and teachings

Still happy and glad and free.

May our stand for the right be securer,

May our thoughts and our acts be surer,

May our hearts and our lives be purer,

St. Mary's, for love of thee.

(Tune: "Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young Charms")

St. Mary's! wherever thy daughters may be

They love thy high praises to sing,
And tell of thy beauties of campus and tree

Around which sweet memories cling;
They may wander afar, out of reach of thy name,

Afar, out of sight of thy grove,
But the thought of St. Mary's aye kindles a flame

Of sweet recollections and love.

Beloved St. Mary's! how great is our debt!

Thou has cared for thy daughters full well;
They can never thy happy instructions forget,

Nor fail of thy virtues to tell.
The love that they feel is a heritage pure;

An experience wholesome and sweet.
Through fast rolling years it will grow and endure;

Be a lamp and a guide to their feet.

May the future unite all the good of thy past

With the best that new knowledge can bring.
Ever onward and upward thy course! To the last

Be thou steadfast in every good thing.
Generations to come may thy fair daughters still

Fondly think on thy halls and thy grove
And carry thy teachings — o'er woodland and hill —
Of earnestness, wisdom, and love.

H. E. H., 1905.

On May 12, 1842, the Rev. Dr. Aldert Smedes opened St. Mary's to its first

pupils.
On MarcK 10, 1897, the "Trustees of St. Mary's School, Raleigh, N. C," having

received a charter from the State, the Board met, organized, and arranged

to take over the School from Dr. Bennett Smedes.
On September 1, 1907, the Rev. George W. Lay assumed the Rectorship of the

School.
In 1917 will therefore occur:

(1) The 75th Anniversary of the Opening of the School.

(2) The 20th Anniversary of the Church Ownership of the School.

(3) The 10th Anniversary of the present Rectorship.

Besides these, 1917 marks the 50th Anniversary of "Miss Katie's" connection with
the School, which would in itself be enough to set aside the year as a special
one.

Thus the year 1917 will be indeed a memorable one at St. Mary's and for St.
Mary's, and will be marked by events fitting the celebration of its many
anniversaries.

The Semi-Centennial of the School was celebrated very happily at the Commence-
ment of 1902.

The Hundredth Birthday of the Founder was celebrated appropriately on April
20, 1910.

It is expected that Alumnae Day, 1917, will be a time of even greater celebration.

St. Mary's has been in large measure
the life-work of Mrs. Mary (Johnson)
Iredell.

As "St. Mary's girl" "before the War"
she was inspired with the spirit of Dr.
Smedes, and later as teacher and aid to
the Drs. Smedes in a multitude of ways,
she in her turn imparted the spirit to
many of the girls of later years.

When the Church purchased the School
she became Agent of the Trustees and
did invaluable work in raising the neces-
sary funds and in building up the School.

She has always been active in Alumnse
affairs and on her retirement from the
active Presidency of the Alumnae Associ-
ation in 1911 was made Honorary Presi-
dent for life.

Mrs. Ikedell
"Love, Sweetness, Goodness
in her person shin'd."

In February, 1917, "Miss Katie" will
have completed fifty years of continuous
work in residence at St. Mary's. In
February, 1867, she became a boarder in
the School and her work has continued
uninterruptedly, first as student and then
as teacher.

The Alumnae Association of St. Mary's was established in 1880 and meets an-
nually at Commencement. It has done effective work in aiding the progress of
the School and grows yearly stronger and more vigorous.

The Alumna? Chapters meet in their several towns and cities on November 1st,
All Saints, which is celebrated as Founders' Day, and on May 12th, the date of the
first opening of St. Mary's, which is observed as Alunmee Day.

The most important special work accomplished by the Alumna? Association has
been the establishment of the Smedes Memorial Scholarship, to the memory of the
Founder and his son, the second Rector of St. Mary's; and the rebuilding of the
Chapel. Its present special work is the fund for establishing the Mary Iredell and
the Kate McKimmon Scholarships.

History of St. Mary's

St. Mary's School was founded in 1842 by the Rev. Aldert Smedes,
D.D. The present location was first set apart as the site for an Epis-
copal School in 1832 when the present "Grove" was purchased for the
establishing of a school for boys. This was not successful and the prop-
erty passed back into private hands.

Dr. Aldert Smedes was conducting a successful girls' school in New
York City when in 1842 Bishop Ives met him and laid before him the
opportunity in his North Carolina diocese. Dr. Smedes determined on
the effort; came to Raleigh with a corps of teachers; gave St. Mary's its
name and threw open its doors on May 12, 1842.

From the first the school was a success and for the remainder of
his life Dr. Smedes allowed nothing to interrupt the work he had under-
taken. During the War between the States St. Mary's was at the same
time school and refuge for those driven from their homes.

On April 25th, 1877, Dr. Smedes died, leaving St. Mary's to the
care of his son, Rev. Dr. Bennett Smedes, who carried on his father's
work as a sacred trust.

All this time St. Mary's was a Church School in the truest sense,
but it was a private enterprise, and permanence required that it have
a corporate existence, so in 1897 Dr. Bennett Smedes proposed to the
Diocese of North Carolina that the Church should take charge of the
School. The offer was accepted and in the fall of 1897 a charter was
granted by the General Assembly.

Dr. Bennett Smedes, who had long wished for this disposition of
St. Mary's, continued as Rector until his death on February 22nd,
1899. To succeed him the Trustees called the Rev. Theodore DuBose
Bratton, Rector of the Church of the Advent, Spartanburg, S. C, and
a teacher of long training. In September, 1899, Dr. Bratton took
charge and for four years administered the affairs of the School very
successfully. In May, 1903, he was chosen Bishop of Mississippi. In
September, 1903, the Rev. McNeely DuBose became Rector and the
School continued its useful career under his devoted care for four
years, until he resigned in May, 1907, to resume parish work. Since
September, 1907, the School has prospered under the fifth Rector, the
Rev. George W. Lay.

Tomorrow, when the sun's

First brilliant rays

Have put to flight the lingering

Stars of dawn,

Our lives shall turn, and seek

In unknown ways

The new life, leave with sadness

That now gone.

Together, for the last time
We shall hear
The pealing of the bells
So clear, so strong,
Then shall we bid adieu
To friends held dear,
And turn aside to paths
Now broad, now long.

Now, the portals of tomorrow

Stand so close

And still within them spreads out

Far, alone,

What mortal man ne'er sees,

Nor ever knows,

The glowing, silent future,

Vast unknown.

Then, dawn of near tomorrow,

Hasten on,

And with your golden rays

So dazzling bright,

Oh, cast upon our separate

Paths at dawn

Your clear, your ever faithful

Guiding light.

The Inter-Society Debates

Since the organization of the Literary Societies the special feature
of their work each year has been the Inter-Society Debates, held an-
nually each spring. In the twelve years ending with 1912-'13, the
Sigma Lambda Society was victorious in eight of these joint debates,
and the Epsilon Alpha Pi Society in four debates.

With the organization of the Alpha Rho Society in 1912 the
Joint Debate gave place to a series of three debates, each society
debating the other two. In 1914, Alpha Rho triumphed in both
debates, and Epsilon Alpha Pi defeated Sigma Lambda. In 1915,
Epsilon Alpha Pi won both debates and Sigma Lambda defeated
Alpha Rho.

In this — the Shakespearian year — the debates were omitted in
favor of a Celebration of the Shakespearian Tercentenary, and, in
cooperation with the English Department, all under the general direc-
tion of Miss Thomas, the Societies gave their best efforts to the
Shakespearian Inter-society Contest on April 10th, and the Shakespear-
ian Festival on May 1st.

In the Contest, the Sigma Lambda Society was pronounced the
winner. There were thirty-two papers submitted, about evenly di-
vided among the three Societies. The individual winners were:

(1) Best Poem: Annie S. Cameron, '16, Alpha Rho

(2) Best Story: Josephine S. Wilson, '16, Epsilon Alpha Pi

(3) Senior Essay: Rena H. Harding, '16, EpBilon Alpha Pi

(4) Junior Essay: Annie Huske Robinson, '17, Sigma Lambda

(5) Sophomore Essay: Katherine Drane, '17, Sigma Lambda

Winners of the Shakespearian Contest

Besides the Faculty Production of "Alice in Wonderland," which,
of course, marks any year as "set apart," the Shakespearian Tercen-
tenary Celebration is the great distinctive feature of the year. It was
with a certain sense of relief that for this one season the debates were
laid aside and every one entered wholeheartedly into the preparation
for the celebration. This was divided into three parts. First, there
was a Shakespearian literary contest under the direction of the three
Literary Societies meant to conserve the spirit of rivalry engendered
by the Debates. The culmination of this Contest was a public inter-
society meeting held in the Auditorium on the evening of April 10th,
and at this meeting were read the winning contributions. In this
contest Alpha Rho led in the poetry, having the four best poems; Ep-
silon Alpha Pi came out as first winner in a story and one essay; and
Sigma Lambda was winner of two essays and second in a story and
essay, thus proving herself the victor.

The second part of the Celebration was the Tercentenary Festival
itself, which was held under the direction of Miss Thomas and the
three Literary Societies, and was considered by many people to be by
far the prettiest thing ever given at St. Mary's. The Festival was
held in the Grove on the slope back of the Auditorium on the night of
May 1st and was a most wonderful success. Every one in the School
took part, dressed in Elizabethan costume, and the merry gathering
of Lords, Ladies, and gaily-dressed villagers made a bright scene not
soon to be forgotten.

The third part of the celebration was the Commencement Play,
"As You Like It," given by the Dramatic Club under the direction
of Miss Davis.

The girls of 1916 feel that it has been a privilege to be able to have
a part in the great Tercentenary Celebration, which is this year being
observed throughout England and America, and the many festivities
centering around its observance at St. Mary's mark a very bright
spot in the memories of the year.

The Shakespeare Tercentenary

Annie S. Cameron, '16.

What a hurrying and a scurrying

And a running 'round is seen,

What a scrambling into smocks and cloaks,

What a donning Lincoln green ;

In all this wild confusion, if the people don't look out

"A Comedy of Errors" it will prove without a doubt.

See the madcap throng approaches,
At the head a motley fool
With his parti-colored trappings,
Bells and bauble, all to rule.
You may take it "As You Like It,"
But this frolic seems to be
The very spirit of old England
On a May Day holiday.

Now the trumpets flare and flourish,
And "The Tempest" of wild sound
Shakes the crowd with merry laughter,
And they reel in dances round,
And the "Merry Wives" and yeomen,
Country lad and lass, with glee,
Join together in the dances,
In the songs and minstrelsy.

But a sudden hush has settled,

The great dignitaries near

Here approach "Two Noble Kinsmen,"

The most important, it is clear,

For the people bow before them

And the trumpets blare once more,

And 'twould be "Love's Labor Lost" to try

To speak above that roar.

jK.

When the uproar has Bubsided
And a slight hush come again,
The players are presented —
They are just hard-handed men —
But in "Pyramus and Thisbe"
They excel themselves, 'tis true,
Are applauded by the people and
The dignitaries too.

Then "Measure for Measure" reels the dance,

And the merry dancers seem

Hardly real or existing,

But a bright "Midsummer's Dream,"

Or, like an old tradition

Which is heard throughout the land,

Like a "Winter's Tale" of May Day

As it's kept in Fairyland.

Now, no doubt you really wonder
At the cause of all these dreams,
"Much Ado About Nothing"
Perhaps to you it seems.
But we're gathered here to honor
Great Will Shakespeare; for the rest
If "All's Well That Ends Well"
It has been a great success.

(One of the winning poems in the Shakespearian ConteBt of April 10, 1916)

Autumn

A vague, haunting sadness broods over the earth;

The forest's green banners are furled
And the blue haze of Autumn like incense of prayer

Hangs over the golden world.

A spirit of quiet and rest is abroad,

And wild-throbbing nature lieB still,
For peace rests over the russet field

And over the purple hill.

Dim memories are stirred by these golden days,

Vague longings, and wistful regret,
For the eve of the year, with its gentle appeal,

Stirs man's soul, that he may not forget.

A. S. C, '16

A Summer Night

The fire-fly flits through the gloaming,

And his wee shining spark is alight.
The wind murmurs low in the hollows,

Crooning wild, tender songs of the night.

The stars, tiny lamplets, are twinkling;

The radiant moon is abeam,
And meadow and fen-land are shimmering,

In her pale, misty light all agleam.

The meadows, dew-drenched, breathe forth perfume,

And afar o'er hollow and hill,
Wind blown through the dim, misty silence,

Comes the cry of the lone whippoorwill.

O'er all things a sweet stillness broodeth,

The world is asleep and adream,
While afar in the wide peaceful heavens,

The moon and the bright starlets beam.

The Gall

A call to me comes in the evening wind

From mountain and hill and plain,

'Neath the tinted skies

Where the red sun dies,

And the Btars creep forth again.

Down through the ages of by-gone days
Unto the years to be,
It is ringing still
Over vale, and hill,
Over the world to me.

And my heart leaps up with an answering cry
Born of this call of old,
And with wild desire
My heart is on fire,
Under the skies of gold.

Oh, for a voice to carry it on,

To send it forth again,

In words of flame

This message that came,

Over the world to men.

To see and be silent! Hear and be dumb!
Barren of words and weak!
Yet to know and to feel
Life's throbbing appeal —
Ah, but for a voice to speak!
